قالب:Unfocused

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

 Usage

This template is used to signal that the article taken as a whole may lack a single, central point of focus or appears to be about more than one topic. It may benefit from being split.

• This template places articles into Category:Wikipedia articles lacking focus.
• This template is a self-reference.
• Please use the |reason= parameter to provide details.

Placement and talk

This is a dispute template which should be placed at the top of the article.

After posting this template, please start a section on the article's talk page to discuss. You can use the optional |talk= parameter to specify the name of a specific section on the talk page.

If the article appears to be about two or more specific topics, or meanders such that you cannot identify a single central focus, please specify this using the |reason= parameter.

Example of use

{{Unfocused|reason=the article covers both widgets and doodads and should be split|date=مايو 2026}}

This renders as:

Do not capitalize the beginning of the reason, since it is preceded by, "In particular, ". Also do not add a full stop at the end of the reason because the template automatically supplies it.

Notes:

• The date-substitution template may be used to automatically generate the date, e.g., {{Unfocused|{{SUBST:DATE}}}}. See Help:Substitution for more information.
• The |date= parameter need not be added by the editor: if not entered, a bot will soon add it. The date parameter consists of the full English name of the current month with initial capital, a space, and the year, not full dates; e.g., "January 2013", but not "jan13". Any deviation from these two rules will result in an "invalid date parameter" error.

 Parameters

• |date=مايو 2026 - required parameter, will be added by a bot if omitted
• |reason=text - optional parameter which adds advisory text
• |talk=section - optional parameter which indicates the talk page section
• |section=yes - optional parameter which replaces the word "article" with the word "section" to indicate that it is the section where it is placed that lacks focus

 Examples

Paste-ready example: {{Unfocused|date=مايو 2026}}

Example with reason: {{Unfocused|date=مايو 2026|reason=}}

Example with talk: {{Unfocused|date=مايو 2026|talk=}}
